  1. Man City game. A potential turning point…

    Posted in hope rather than reality I feel. I think there is 0.0000000% of that actually happening.
  2. Would any City player get into a combined United-City all time XI?

    You're forgetting Joe Spence born in 1898. FFS, what is the point of looking back this far? Talk about basking in former glory.
  3. Falling out of love with football (warning - miserable moaning post)

    I get that you are feeling sore about the soft penalty yesterday, but the above is the most ridiculous thing I have read in a quite a while. You will presumably be blissfully unaware of the outrageous VAR decisions that went against City over the last few seasons - a lowlight being when they...
  4. Do City leave you cold?

    It's fascinating to hear people here describing City as cheats, as if somehow ripping off your own fans for decades and saddling your club with a mountain of debt is fine wholesome activity, whereas an owner wishing to invest his own money in the club, the infrastrure and the regeneration of a...
  5. Do City leave you cold?

    Of course I understand why you want to believe that. It must be painful to see your own club under-performing for 10 years whilst the club down the road spends less than you and wins trophy after trophy after trophy. But what actual evidence do you have for your allegation? I don't mean rumours...
  6. Oleksandr Zinchenko: The most underrated player in the PL?

    Speaking as a City fan - I think he's crap. I've always thought he is crap and I was not remotely unhappy when we sold him. He cannot defend and offers bugger-all going forward. Cannot cross, cannot assist, cannot shoot but OK passing backwards. Basically useless. Watch him get absolutely...
  7. Nordic Ghost Yeti | Haaland at City

    Totally with you on that. It's like saying Mbappe is much better than Andy Murray. At tennis, he almost certainly isn't.
  8. Pep Guardiola to leave Man City in 2023 | Extends contract until 2025

    It sure as hell bothers me ;-) And BTW, I am not sure we will ever win it with him in charge. Incredible manager over the course of a season. He manages to rotate a squad, swapping players in and out, and managing through suspensions and injuries, better than anyone else. But he has the...
  9. Nordic Ghost Yeti | Haaland at City

    Yes. Made up, 100% Seems to me some people on here are desperate to cling to any idea no matter how ludicrous, to numb the pain of United not having signed him. This £900k per week story can be filed in the bin alongside the Real Madrid 2023 release cause story. I doubt he's on more than half...
  10. Nordic Ghost Yeti | Haaland at City

    Sorry mate but that's just nonsense. There's never been anything like Haaland in the modern era. It's not only on the PL where he's doing it, it's every league and competition he plays in. He's ahead of Suarez for example in CL goals now already and he's 22 FFS. He's different gravy.
  11. Nordic Ghost Yeti | Haaland at City

    I remember people wishfully saying similar about Pep nearly 6 years ago.
  12. Nordic Ghost Yeti | Haaland at City

    Yes because City have really struggled against the top sides over the past 5 seasons, haven't they. Winning only 4 PL titles not 5. And now City are much weaker with the arrival of Haaland, it will be interesting to see how much more they will struggle. ????? W. T. F. ????
  13. Nordic Ghost Yeti | Haaland at City

    Indeed. I think you could say that when he scored 9 himself in one Norway game.
  14. Nordic Ghost Yeti | Haaland at City

    Peter Beardsley says thanks, BTW.
  15. Protest planned ahead of the Liverpool game

    I am no fan of the Glazers, most certainly not. But I note in the leaflet above, these words, "An ownership that is systematically starving and killing the greatest football institution in world football, for greed". Sure they are killing it. But starving it? And for greed? How can anyone...
